Characteristics of the Viking Sword

- Spring Steel Blade: Forged from spring steel, non-stainless, hardened and tempered to a Rockwell hardness of approximately 48-52 HRC. The perfect combination of resistance and lightness.

- Rounded Tip: With approximately 2-2.5 mm thick edges and a rounded tip, it is suitable for stage combat. Security and authenticity are combined in this sword.
- Two-Part Pommel: Like historical swords of the period, the pommel is constructed in two parts with a three-lobed top section secured to the curved base by two rivets. Additionally, the full tang of the blade is firmly riveted to the pommel socket. This guarantees its stability and authenticity.
- Two Blade Lengths Available: You can choose between the long version (74 cm) or the short version (64 cm). The long version is an excellent option for those looking for greater range in their movements.
